E&S Electric

What E&S Electric does

E&S Electric, Inc. is a family-owned electrical contracting firm headquartered at 251 S Blue Mounds St., Mount Horeb, Wisconsin, serving the Madison metro area and western neighboring communities. The company traces its roots to 1958, when Irv Eichorst Sr. founded a farm, service, and residential wiring business; it was re-established as E&S Electric, Inc. in 1974 upon Irv Jr.'s succession and has remained under family ownership across three generations. Its current leadership includes Michael E. (President/CEO), with sons Mike and John Eichorst — both Certified Master Electricians and graduates of Dunwoody Industrial Institute — having joined in 1985 and 1997 respectively.

The company delivers a full range of electrical contracting services spanning new construction, remodeling, repair, code-compliance, and maintenance for residential, commercial, and industrial customers. Core service lines include general electrical work, lighting installation (architectural, parking, sports field), industrial motor controls and building automation, Generac generator installation, fire alarm/security/sound systems, energy-efficiency retrofits, surge protection, and low-voltage voice/data wiring. It operates a 5-year apprenticeship pipeline through the ABC of Wisconsin and maintains state licensure plus ABC STEP and AGC safety awards.

E&S Electric's revenue model is professional-services based, with project-based fees, on-site diagnoses, upfront pricing, and pay-as-you-go billing. The go-to-market is direct sales (phone and website inquiries) supplemented by referrals and word-of-mouth, with a small online presence (website, Facebook) and an online payment portal. Customer mix is fragmented across project types and industries, with no single anchor client disclosed; recent operational changes include the retirements of two senior Master Electricians in 2024 and 2025.
